What We Do
The Montessori Courtyard Preschool of Christchurch

Our Philosophy

At the Courtyard we aim to awaken the child’s spirit by providing a dynamic link between the child and their environment. In order to achieve each child’s holistic development to the fullest, there must be a strong, trusting relationship between preschool, child, family/whānau and community.

The Montessori prepared environment allows the freedom for children to find their own great work, revealing their inner human potentialities.

We endeavour to explore new ways of being with children that are based on collaboration, wonder and respect for what they bring.

The Courtyard Montessori Preschool embraces the Montessori Philosophy, which supports the creation of a luminous future for a new and peaceful humanity.
